Good Afternoon Everyone
It is hard to believe we are halfway through the term!
It was wonderful to have so many grandparents, special friends and families join us for Grandparents day. It was a wonderful celebration and a true reflection of your importance in our school community.
Yesterday we celebrated the Feast of Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop, our first Australian saint and we give thanks for this extraordinary woman. Mary MacKillop was an educator, a pioneer and a leader, someone who had compassion for others regardless of their situation. Strengthened by her belief in the value of education as the foundation for a fulfilling life, Mary’s motto was ‘never see a need without doing something about it’. Mary’s legacy of helping all people in need, so we create more connected, stronger communities is so important today and calls us all to follow her beautiful example. Through our Graduate Outcomes all at Sacred Heart aspire to grow more like this wonderful Australian saint each and every day.
Congratulations to our Foundation student who celebrated 100th day of learning last Friday. (Photo) The students looked amazing in their costumes as well as our staff. A special thank you to their teachers for their guidance and the enriching and engaging learning they have provided over the past 100 days and the fun activities they organised to celebrate this milestone.
Don’t forget this Year Book Week parade will take place on Thursday 31st August (Week 8).
We have a pupil free day on Friday 25th August. We will be working with Matt Knight who will be leading us in developing and enhancing our whole school writing curriculum.
Take care
Arn
